ok so I did something really dumb...

ok so here's what I did to royally screw up things on my tablet. I had installed the latest Streakdroid ROM and wasn't getting any data connection at all though it showed on the taskbar at the top that I did. I decided I was going to follow the steps in the thread that had the instructions on how to bring back to factory settings so I can start fresh. I had gotten to the part where I was about to execute the fastboot command and my computer never detected that the tablet was hooked up at that point. Now when I go into recovery, I have the stock recovery loader that dell put in and the streakdroid rom's wifi doesn't work so I can't do anything at all. not even download a file explorer to install the rom manager or anything...i'm afraid that I've really screwed things up. any help would be greatly appreciated.

Reflash cwr. Then flash another rom you flash a stock build that wiped cwr and replaced it with stock. Your fine.

Without using the "quote" button, I have no idea what this is in reference to. I'm lost in a sea of confusion, hopelessly drifting about in search of meaning and context.

That would be a lot funnier over in the thread where I mentioned the quote button.

LOL, good one...

alright so I managed to use nvflash to restore it and it worked. I still have a problem with data but I'm thinking now it's more of an issue with T-Mobile than it is my tablet. wifi works fine.

I had this issue too.. I just moved fastboot.exe into the same folder as adb. The dll it's looking for is in that same folder.

Dude you are far from bricking this device.
=) You should be good following Hellya's suggestions

Good luck with that/

[Q] How to start over?

I'm not sure whats going on with my D3. However, I have RSD and I have .890 and .959 downloaded as well as Fastboot.
What I want to do is just wipe the phone completely and just flash it like its a brand new phone.
Anyone know how to do so? Please post a link or instructions, I would greatly appreciate it.

Follow the first portion of the instructions on how to flash back to original 5.6.890. Note the making of a folder and it's name for the 890 flash.
Ignore the part about flashing the new ROM. These are the best instructions I've found so far for flashing back to stock via RSD lite.
Good luck, keep us posted.
Download and follow exactly and you'll be good to go.
Hope that helps.

I'm stuck.

Let me do some looking when I get home tonight. I remember there being a file for certain versions of XP that helped some people and they couldn't flash without it.
I never had it happen personally, but I know those that did were terribly frustrated.
I also hear the 959 version is easier to flash for some reason. Never flashed that version, so this is only hear-say. But I know it did flash easier according to posts.
I will try to dig up a link for you.

i am getting the same thing also getting the bad CG boot.. now this may be a fix but idk how this guy got it it.. i have been asking eveywhere maybe you guys could help me... here is the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1248721

I found this by Psouza. He is likely the foremost expert on making things easy as far as unbricking your D3. Rumor has it he has a set of unbrick tools floating around this forum somewhere, though I haven't found it yet. Try in the Development thread, for sure it has to be there somewhere.

For those of you having problems flashing this and/or are suspicious of flashing ebr, mbr, and parts of the bootloader, you can selectively just flash the rest of it.

I also saw that flashing the pre-installs file alone first helped someone. That file borked on me once, but I was able to adb it over and then execute it via adb to get my phone unbricked.
Please let us know what works for you, as all of this is a work in progress right now.
Good luck!

i don't know to much about adb and are looking for help on pre-installed files. I don't understand what that means or how to go about it? i also cant get past the bootloader screen, "invalid CG version". i can not boot up at all.

How bricked are you? can you boot into CWM? Are you able to boot into tools, or how far can you get?
What version were you running? 5.959 (stock) or 6.890 OTA or Leaked OTA or Soak test (all the same as far as 6.890 goes).

i can get into boot tools and just tryed another flash got to step 6 till it failed instead of 3.. I'm running stock. Cannot get passed boot tools... scratch all that just tried to flash again just on the off chance it mnight work and i got it. Going to try and re-root and CWN recovery with sdteel froids rom... will keep you in the loop

Awesome!!
Here is the link about the adb commands for preinstall.sh
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=17196391&postcount=88
It helped me when I borked my leaked update. I ran into the same problem as limaxray did with too many files in /system. So make sure you clean out any apps you made into system apps before trying the update via the standard update route, and that all stock system apps are in place and properly named.
I had to remove some that updated partially with the leaked update when mine borked. I used the posted system dump to push them to the phone and then the update ran properly and updated them anyhow.
If for some reason re-rooting doesn't work for you. Go to /system/bin and remove su, busybox. Do the same in /system/xbin. For some reason if you already have them in there when you run the process, it will say success but no root after reboot. My 2c as it happened to me. You do not need to remove superuser.apk, but you will have to update it in the market after you re-root.
Congrats!!
I see now too there is a fastboot and moto-fastboot. moto-fastboot has worked for some who had issues from what I've found.
Keep us posted, and smile knowing you've recovered from a bork; none of us got where we are without doing it at least once, so you're in good company.

re-rooted and installed bootstrap, just got steel droid all loaded up and all is good.... thanks for your speedy responses and detailed instructions and links. I realy think all that happened was i took everything aet it sone last time tried to flash and it went threw. All i used was RSD lite and flashed the 8.6.590 fast boot file and after a several retries it went threw. If anyone needs help on this i will post the file links if you need the ones i used

Bionic Left to Die!?

Can someone help my poor Bionic? All the links to restore a bionic are dead and its like a cemetery here nowadays... The Bionic was the most valued phone at one point, with its duo core and LTE together for the first time. gee... How said that the Bionic gets no love...
Anyway if someone can point me in the direction of a solid restore I would really appreciate it. I have rsd and a file but for some reason my bionic doesnt show up in rsd. Any links would be great thanks guys...

Are all the current drivers installed on your computer? What system are you using? What bit?

I feel ya man! I soft bricked mine the other day after flashing a gummy rom and trying to use bootstrap instead of safestrap to nandroid back to eclipse. I had a super hard time finding the sbf files as well and none of the one click methods worked. I'll try and find the link for you when I get home.
Oh, did you put your phone into fastboot first?

Thanks for the replies... I eventually found what i needed but I honestly think my phone is done. No matter what I do my phone is not recognized in ap fastboot. it says battery ok ok to program but no programs can read it. I can flash via platform-tools fastboot img by img but released root wont recognize it, 902 path wont see it and rsd wont see it. I am so confused...

What caused this mess to begin with?
What system version were you running? 902?
I might be able to help you get this phone up and running again. It is very hard to totally brick the bionic!

You should try using the Ubuntu! It is bulletproof... One step and does not rely stupid drivers.
I use it at least 4 times a week

You never mentioned if you installed the newest drivers. Drivers will help RSD Lite see your phone when you plug it in.

Sorry for the misunderstanding. I did install the latest drivers and my phone is not recognized by any fastboot program However I can command it manually. So I did so only thing is I hve restored to 886 and no radio. I tried mot-fastboot flash radio radio.img but i still dont have a radio. If I had a radio zip that would help maybe... Or if my stupid phone would just flash via rsd that would be great but doesnt look like that will happen. Thanks again
Edit: My new core i5 lenovo was the issue. My old Laptop fixed it like a charm. Thanks to all you faithful bionic owners lol. Seriously though why does the best network get such lack of development on its phones... Sad, Even the Droid Charge was left with no love...

They worked for me and actually I'm back to running Eclipse latest 904 build updated a few days ago after running the 902 rebuilds referenced previously and also figuring out my main problem with Motorola's FastBoot Recovery was USB cable and port related. I simply had to use a new cable and USB port on the back on my computer to finally get FastBoot recovery to work.
Either way, it saved my Bionic and I'm now running Eclipse 904 (build 4 - 04/30/12) - h t t p://eclipserom.com/vforum/showthread.php?1612-ROM-Eclipse-Bionic-Test-Build-05-5-1-12 without problems. Sorli...

edit, already solved

I'm thinking I've burned up some usb ports with my phones over the years...I only plug it into a powered hub now

droid 3 radio issue

Ok I've become highly frustrated can anyone help me on this one? Droid 3 stock was working fine and all of a sudden no service what so ever. Can only connect via wifi. I've done: *228 (doesn't work no service), ## program (didn't work somehow my spc password has changed tried all vzw told me to try), tried factory reset (still didn't work), tried rooting phone cwm boot strapper etc (still no radio) even tried the stock flash from other threads where these phones have had this issue. (Still not working) I even tried cdma workdhop to read the memory to find the spc pw and the file said that the txt file did not exist. What's left to do? Pull the trigger? Really could use some help.... thanks!

By stock flash do you mean sbf via rsdlite or motofastboot. If you've flashed stock firmware and still have issues I would suspect it's a hardware issue

Its the one named D3.906.SBF by overlayer I used ill try to find the post that has the file. Moto-fastboot I think where would I find the other (it'll be a pain if its hardware....)

Try toggling through Global/CDMA/GSM modes and end on CDMA (if you use Verizon). I sometimes have this issue, though usually after flashing a radio. Also if you SBF, remember to wipe data/cache. If you want it, I can upload the stock 890 radio and you can flash with moto-fastboot. The 890 radio DOES work with 906 system, I switch between the 890 and XT883 radio for CDMA/GSM.

Motofastboot and rsdlite are just 2 different ways of flashing firmware. Rsdlite is more user friendly and automated whereas motofastboot is a command line utility that allows you to flash single partitions instead of the whole device. Ovelayers tool uses motofastboot and a script I believe

I'm helping a friend on the same situation.
Phone doesn't boot.
Stuck on M logo.
Locked bootloader.
Able to go to AP fastboot
No custom recovery.
Particularly this is my first time dealing with a motorola phone. Have flashed HTC and have owned mostly samsung phones.
But I know my way a bit on adb and fastboot.
Anyways I'll keep an eye on this thread and let you know if I find something on my own.
I'll try with RSDLite, Myth tools and fastboot.
Maybe one of them will work.
Good luck.

From fastboot, I recommend unlocking the bootloader, install Philz, and flash a custom KK ROM.

Manual fastboot didn't work. Always stuck on flashing boot.img and system.img
The same happen on that step in rds lite and myth tools.
Phone said can't downgrade or something like that.
So I haven't had any luck yet.
